"You...... Can't kill me, I'm ...... I am...... I am the Liaobei Army...... Commander! I am...... ...... of the Ming Empire Checkmate! You didn't ...... How to ...... without judging me How is it...... Convict me? This is, this is a private killing, a private killing of the feudal officials, this is, to, a big crime to be punished by the nine clans! Wang Futong was held to the cheek with a gun by the captain of the brocade guard, and he trembled a little with fright, and he desperately explained to himself, hoping to persuade the other party to put down the weapon in his hand.

Although the Ming Empire has embodied the rudiments of modern civilization in many places, and even many places have been at the forefront of the times, it still adheres to a very primitive and barbaric way of governing in some corners. For example, because of the Emperor of the Apocalypse's personal disgust for corruption, treason, rebellion and other crimes, the Ming Empire never gave up the ferocious punishment methods.

For serious crimes, criminals will be hanged and shot in addition to the bloody punishment, so far Britain and other Catholic regions still use the death penalty of the Ming Empire to question the legitimacy of the Ming Empire's rule. Of course, the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Empire has always laughed at this, and did not take these doubts to heart.

However, there is no doubt that the Ming Empire has a punishment of more than the death penalty such as beheading and beheading, car splitting, and Ling Chi, etc., and in addition to the punishment for being single, there are also three clans and nine clans and other punishments. The basis of the trial is mainly based on the severity of the circumstances, and the treatment is differentiated as an accessory to the first offense, with the idea of putting an end to criminal acts such as corruption and rebellion that can benefit future generations.

When these criminal laws were drafted, the Emperor of the Apocalypse meant: Isn't there someone who is corrupt? Isn't the money squandered by the children and grandchildren, and it cannot be returned? Then kill them all to make an example! -- I have to say that this point inherited the ruthlessness and determination of Zhu Yuanzhang back then, but it seems that the effect of later generations is that these harsh punishments still have not been able to stop the corrupt officials from eroding the foundation of the country.

Wang Futong knew that he had not really raised an army against Ming, so all the evidence of the crime could be overturned. After all, he is also a general who controls 200,000 border troops, and under normal circumstances, the imperial court will not use private means, but he will be convicted after trial. Thinking of this, Wang Futong even felt a little aggrieved, after all, he hadn't really rebelled, why was he arrested?

"I'm sorry! In order to smoothly receive the Liaobei Army, you can only die. Dahan spoke in a very calm voice, and slowly said this to Wang Futong. Then he pulled the trigger in his hand and shot Wang Futong through the head.

Wang Futong was obviously stunned after hearing what the other party said, he wanted to fight for a chance to live for himself, so he also wanted to ask for a chance to atone for his sins. He really wanted to say to the big man in front of him: "As long as you don't kill me, I will cooperate with you well and let you successfully receive the Liaobei Army!" ”

It's a pity that before his words could be spoken, the bullet pierced his head, and when Wang Futong fell, his heart suddenly surged with incomparable remorse, he regretted why he was under the connivance of Ge Tianzhang and supported himself in Liaobei, and he hated himself for why he didn't go south to support Liaodong with all his strength at the beginning of this Liaodong battle.

At the same time, he also hated why he didn't listen to Zhang Baiting's persuasion and quickly rebelled, and he hated himself even more for hesitating and believing that the Ming Empire would appease him and let such a bad star enter his office.

With a thousand hatreds, it was impossible to change the current situation, Wang Futong's body fell backwards, and finally smashed on the floor with a crisp sound. Then this feudal official who had been powerful and blessed in northern Liaobei for a long time, the so-called "uncrowned king" of northern Liaoning, just lay on the cold floor and ended his life.

"Wang Futong, the minister who tried to commit the crime of rebellion, has already been punished! Who else is not afraid of death, who wants to live a good life and go against his motherland? Give me Wang Jue to stand up! Standing at the gate, Wang Jue coldly looked at the soldiers on duty who rushed over after hearing the gunshots, as well as the officers in various departments of the Liaobei Army Headquarters who wanted to see what was going on, and shouted loudly.

Hearing Wang Jue's shout, these soldiers and officers were startled, Wang Futong's name is in the Liaobei Army, but it is an unattainable existence, these officers and soldiers rarely mention His Majesty the Emperor on weekdays, but they often have to say Wang Futong and the general several times.

However, when it comes to the Ming Empire and His Majesty the Emperor, these men who are soldiers in northern Liaobei still have concepts in their hearts. It is one thing to let them, under the leadership of Wang Futong, support troops in northern Liaobei and be self-respecting and happy, but it is another thing to create a rebellion against the Ming Empire. Similarly, after hearing that Wang Futong had been killed, let them twist themselves into a rope and kill the murderous Ming Empire Qincha, they didn't have that much courage.

After all, having a leader, and not having one, is not the same thing at all. No one wants to be this bird, so they just stood there in Wang Jue's shouting, not knowing what to do. They seemed to be waiting, waiting for Wang Jue to give them an explanation, an explanation for them to decide their next move.

Of course, Wang Jue will give them an explanation, and Wang Jue knows that the statement he gave is still the most desired statement of these Liaobei soldiers: "The criminal minister Wang Futong is dead, and the court is benevolent, and the rest of the people will not be held responsible!" As long as the Liaobei Army is not chaotic, you are still the generals and captains of the Ming Empire, and even if you are transferred in the future, you will still maintain your current treatment! If you don't believe it, you can come to my Wang Jue to ask for an explanation, and my Wang Jue promises that I will never break my word! ”

Hearing this young man calling himself Wang Jue in a row, these officers of the Northern Liaobei Army who had heard a lot of news about Liaodong couldn't afford to resist or avenge their old boss Wang Futong. They look at me, I look at you, and finally out of the crowd came an officer, looking at the rank of a staff officer.

He walked up to Wang Jue, stood up and saluted and shouted Long live His Majesty the Emperor before he began to speak. His actions also made the Jinyi guard, who was guarding beside Wang Jue, slightly move away from the muzzle of the black hole, and the atmosphere eased a lot. After seeing the officer's salute, he asked: "Your Excellency, General, we really don't have the intention of rebellion, what Wang Fu did with the commander before, as a subordinate, I don't want to comment, I only ask Your Excellency General, the salary and materials of the Liaobei Army...... Will it be ......"

What he said was also the most interesting issue for many officers, after all, their immediate boss had just been disposed of, and the daily consumption of more than 200,000 troops was astronomical, and if the imperial court deliberately defaulted, it would definitely make this army chaotic.

Wang Jue nodded, it seems that although the Liaobei Army is used to riding on the wall, and there is a suspicion of self-respect and rebellion, after all, it is an organized border army, and there are still many capable people. After he nodded, he began to say: "The materials will never be in arrears, and even without Wang Futong's exploitation and deductions, everyone can get more!" ”

After speaking, he stretched out a finger: "Please rest assured about this, I, Wang Jue, will personally arrange it!" As long as you guarantee that you are loyal to the Ming Empire, then the Ming Empire will not embarrass you! What about the Chief of Staff? Tell him to come to me! Next, I will be the acting commander of the Liaobei Army, and everyone will be under my command for the time being! ”

The so-called "shadow of the famous tree of people", Wang Jue pacified the headquarters of the entire Liaobei Army in a few words, which seemed very simple, but in fact it was not. First of all, the Liaobei Army has always been a part of the branch of the Jingshi Wang family, and many of the achievements of the Liaobei Army were fought under the command of the generals of the Jingshi Wang family. The second is that Wang Jue became famous in the first battle of Liaodong, and there are not a few people in the Liaobei Army who are afraid of him, this time I heard that Wang Jue is going to take over the Liaobei Army, naturally no one dares to speak out against it.

However, there is still a long way to go before Wang Jue successfully takes over the Liaobei Army. The huge Liaobei Army did not have only one headquarters, it also had several military headquarters, more than 10 division headquarters, and many various institutions under its jurisdiction -- these troops were scattered over a considerable area, and it would take a lot of time to fully control this force.

However, Wang Jue still successfully completed the first step, he destroyed the command core of the Liaobei Army, and seized the local command in one fell swoop. Even if a few people disobey the dispatch and continue to commit rebellion, the number will not have any impact on the Ming army in Liaodong...... After achieving this goal, Wang Jue can be regarded as having completed most of the task.

However, Wang Jue's mood was not very good at this moment, because since the moment he safely entered the headquarters of the Liaobei Army, he had already won by seven points. At the same time, it also proved a regrettable result: Wang Futong did not make up his mind to rebel.

From a legal point of view, Wang Jue's killing of Wang Fu was a wrong practice, because he did not have a trial and no corresponding evidence to prove that Wang Fu rebelled. From a moral point of view, it was Wang Futong's failure to rebel that gave Wang Jue a chance to succeed in this trip to northern Liao. But Wang Jue used such an opportunity to kill Wang Futong.

He sighed softly, and then issued various orders to the officers of the Liaobei Army who had already defected to him, first letting a few divisions with the lowest combat effectiveness start to move towards the Mongolian region, and the corresponding supply location was also changed to the area close to Daming.

As long as these troops move in batches to receive supplies and supplies, they will be separated, taken over by the Ming generals, and then begun to be dismantled, and there will be no more waves. A seemingly dangerous Liaobei Army took over, and Wang Jue put himself in danger, which was solved without danger.
